St Ives manager Ricky Marheineke said he is looking at the Evo-Stik League Southern Cup as a chance for silverware ahead of their third round tie with Biggleswade Town on Tuesday night.

With both teams comfortably in mid-table and as the play-offs are probably out of reach, Markheineke believes this presents both teams with a good chance to win something.

He said: “We’re looking at it as a chance to win some silverware and I’m sure Biggleswade will be looking at it the same.

“That’s how we’ll approach it, and I expect it to be two teams battling in out rather than two teams who have made a lot of changes.

“We want to try and win every game.

“Winning football breeds momentum and confidence so we’re going to be approaching the game like any other.

“We’re going to make changes but we’ll certainly still be trying to win the game. We’ve got a very good squad and the lads that come in will be looking to push for a starting place.”

St Ives had an impressive 2-0 victory against Slough Town to extend their fine recent league form, and Marheineke is hoping they take this into the cup.

He said: “It’s is a very good place to be at the minute. There’s no better feeling than winning football games, and we hadn’t lost in a while until a freak goal in the 94th minute against King’s Lynn, so we’re confident.”
